Red Line Maps?

[JustAnotherGen]

Hey AfAm group - does anyone have any idea about where I could find a comprehensive list of zip codes that were Red Lines? Or maps? I've googled and researched in local records but can't find anything documented that proves it.

1. You must check out 'Mapping Inequality'.

2. Thanks - I tried that

It's not showing the outer reaches of NJ.

I'm going to see if my nephew can find anything via his connects at Goldman.

4. It's a site at the U of Richmond, so you can also reach out to the project team to ask.

6. This is why I love DU

I will try that. I might be suing my local Historic Preservation Committee and successful cases have had a small reliance on red-lining status.

Thanks so much!

7. Consider reaching out to the Jim Crow Museum at Ferris State in West Mid Michigan

I do not know for stone true that they have maps, but it's worth a call/ email.


And yeah, a medium sized Michigan State University having that museum was a hnmm moment to me before I went there in 2000. If you are in the area, go see it.
